The Making of Halloween (and Grain Alcohol)

Newspaper current event by willwaddell on 30 October 2006, tagged as pithy

It's Halloween again, and in keeping with O-Nerd's long tradition, we've endeavored to bring you some spooky insights as only Nick Dilmore can deliver them. From Halloween's inception as a Celtic festival to the more modern rumors of razor blades in the apples, LordDilly covers it all with humor, wit and a pint of Guinness ... or two. So, take a break from the candy-induced comma, banish that mental image of your overweight friend in her naughty schoolgirl costume, and take a Dilmorian trip through the history of Halloween. Inside you are sure to find plenty of thrills, chills, and gratuitous references to booze. Enjoy.
